Nature of Art™ For Kids © 2011

Many studies have been documented how children from ages two years through ten years of age have healthy brain development by being involved in visual arts such as drawing and painting and other forms of art. It has been said, art stimulates high levels of myelination in the brain. Simply put (neuroscience stuff) good neural circuits working faster. Cognitive, motor and sensory being effected by these art activities in a very positive way. Eco art teacher, Spramani E'laun
